Readiness

Depends which way you look at it I suppose. Tornado was not told
"Get to Afg asap" it was given a set period of time, that period has not elapsed yet.

Or is the delay (3 months? 6 months? A year?) really because there isn't anywhere to park them (and all the contractors who lay the concrete have run off)?
Sometimes the truth spoils what would otherwise be a good beating stick.

Can you remember how quick Tornado was ready for Bosnia or Telic once tasked?
